Catch Up #1-Duke Gardens

I do apologize for the blog silence….the day to day has gotten away from me for the last little bit. I would like to catch up if you will in the next few posts. During our recent visit to NC we enjoyed a lovely day out with Keith's parents. We visited Duke Gardens, it was still early for some things to be in bloom but what a spectacular place to explore.

“25 years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the things you did do. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade wind in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” - Mark Twain

"...to be a parent is to live in the past-present-future all at once. It is to hug your children and be intensely aware of how much smaller they felt last year...even as you wonder how much bigger they will feel the next. It is to be a time-shifter, to marvel at the budding of their intellect, their verbal dexterity, their sense of humor...at the same time rewinding and fast-forwarding...to when they were younger, to when they'll be older. It is to experience longing for the here and now..." -Youngme Moon - Different
